Rapper Busta Rhymes was denied entry into the United Kingdom.  According to immigration officials "unresolved convictons" was the reason given for Rhymes being denied entry into the country.  Rhymes was attempting to enter London in order to participate in a charity function at Royal Albert Hall.  Rhymes was detained for a short time and then released pending a hearing to determine whether the rapper will be allowed into the county.  If for some reason Rhymes cannot perform fellow rapper Ludacris has agreed to fill in for Rhymes.  The hearing will most likely be held some time Friday afternoon London time, at which time Rhymes can present reasoning why he should be allowed to enter the country; something he says he has done twice this year already.
